Building the Ultimate Classic Mac.

I'm not disagreeing with you. I have multiple PPC Mac's and a couple of PowerBooks. I'm set. Apple systems from the past typically had 2 big advantages over windows based systems. * significantly easier to administer, and at least some level of stability over MS code * Apple systems last forever where a box was typically good for 2 to 3 years on the x86 side. I had an 8600, purchased brand new, and although it wasn't our sole system (lots of Sparc boxes at home also), we used that 8600 daily, or almost daily for 8 years. Whether the current boxes being produced today are still usable for 8 years really isn't up for debate, whether they are or not. The vast majority of Mac users don't view the technology as usable for an extended period of time. At least that is my observation. Back on topic, many Mac users today would/have stuck their nose up at PPC and 68K powered boxes, and don't even acknowledge them. If a critical piece of Mac OS code crossed their path, SheepShaver would be their only option. As for me, restating again, as I already have hardware that can run Mac OS code, SheepShaver is a novelty for me, and I have never attempted to use it for anything serious or for any significant length of time for a big project. I also agree with your comment on "Tiger forever" comment. Most people only see that we lost the Classic environment. For me, 10.5 + has been like a country music song, i.e. you know what you get if you play a country music record backwards? Answer, house, wife, job, horse, money, best friend, etc. Thanks for the reply, Jerry On 07/17/16 07:28 PM, Cameron Kaiser wrote:
